Do you still have the pages available where you configured this? If you open it with SharePoint Designer, you can view the content of the page. The JSON is escaped, so it is difficult to read. When I look at my page in SPD, and remove escaping characters, I can see how the webpart is configured. If you share how "Display maps" was initially configured on your environment, possibily we can reproduce this functionality by manipulating the page through SPD.


See example below how filters on a Highlighted content webpart are stored on the page.

filters":[{"filterType":6,"value":"STS_Site","op":1,"fieldNameMatchText":"Contentcl","lastFieldNameMatchText":"Contentcl","fieldname":"ContentClass"},{"filterType":6,"value":"/sites/","op":3,"fieldNameMatchText":"Pat","lastFieldNameMatchText":"Pat","fieldname":"Path"},{"filterType":6,"value":"GROUP","op":1,"fieldNameMatchText":"WebTemplate","lastFieldNameMatchText":"WebTemplate","fieldname":"WebTemplate"}]
